Exhaustion,
Is what rings through my senses as I am about to pass out,
Quater past three, it has been me who wrote through the night until now, serene and clear was it's beginning which now only became a dark memory, recurring in my sleepy mind begging for slumber,
However, such are the thoughts of one who was too weak,
Knowledge was ****** into me, yet the chains of destiny remain bounding, almost tying me up to some sort, I cannot escape.
Oh how I cannot escape this dreamlike tale of misry and restlessnes,
Oh how I couldn't protect my heart in love from dying back then.
It all came to the point of no return until they were replaced.
But why not me ? What was it which I had left to do to go as well ?
Perhaps it was decided that it should have been so all along,
I shouldn't complain, even though humans live wretchedly,
Living and finding a new light to hang onto,
Is what I find very beautiful

The more one gives the more others are likely to take
and so expectations are increased for the giver’s sake.

Please note that I'm  not against giving at all but some people can and do take advantage of one's generosity at times.

You are more than just pounds of meat
More than working muscle and skin
I wake only to see your face
All I have is solid hope for that grin

You are more than a primitive animal
More than hair on a somber hide
There is a special glow radiating
Shining from a place inside

You amount to more than the atoms
Meandering throughout magical matter
Please tell me what led you to believe our ideas
Would boil down to pointless chatter?

I would gladly rip my flesh
Endure the darkest agony
It would show you the love I feel
Is much more than biology
More than a chemical reaction

Some of the truest things are found,
where everything is NOT.

But this lie existing, incomparable
to what it does
as what counts.

I’m not alone
As I miss you
My memory is short
My longing is long
Heart and lips and heat
Touched my open soul
There’s no too much
There’s not enough
There’s so much more

Can I just have one more dream?
Of you and me
For something to remember
For my sanity
I want to feel your lips
Just in my mind.
I can't stand this distance
Please come back to me
If only in my dreams.
I missed him terribly.

for ****'s sake give your superficial ego a break‬

‪it masks your insecurities‬
‪but an empty person is all I see‬
‪all your potential has been absorbed by chemicals‬

‪all the pain has messed up your brain and I tried to refrain ‬
‪but I want to help you go back to yourself again‬

‪p.s. i dont like you, i dont love you‬
‪.....anymore‬.
